I realize that the more flight hours a first officer candidate has, the easier it is to be hired. Can PEA help me build even more hours to speed the hiring process?

I've had seriously good fun at Phoenix, and a great opportunity to train other pilots after getting the flight instructor ticket, all in a really nice and relaxed manner. After 5 months of instructing I got a job as a first officer on the Saab 340 for a regional airline in Europe. And what's most important, I think, I had absolutely no problems jumping from the Piper Cherokee into a 3 times faster, 10 times bigger aeroplane. This was the big test, I suppose, and one that made me think different about the training I got in Phoenix, changing 180 degrees my feelings towards those 'not so relaxed' instructors I had the privilege to fly with during my training.
